To above poster, i thought you 'had problems' with a very every-day thing and that it might be an issue with attitude seeing as it sounded like such a deeply rooted problem.

"hatred of sound"? damn.. that is... exactly the opposite of what people mean with, 'no music no life'.

what gets on my nerves is people knowingly or unknowingly treating others with much less respect because they don't like one facet of them. it is suddenly an excuse to be lazy with manners or to uninclude/exclude somebody. sometimes it comes down to someone being unemployed, or how much effort they put into styling their hair.
it can be so hard to make someone realize that they are being stubborn or unnecessarily selective


Hatred of sound doesnt mean i hate all sounds.. I really, really love good music, I love the sound of paper and some other weird things like that..

I just hate whistling and some peoples eating noises. However, the latter is a lot less of a problem because I dont get exposed all the time.

The trend that everything has to be fucking hashtagged, and social media whorage in general.

Also the current obnoxious trend that internet in-jokes and memes being seized upon by the very morons that used to give me shit for being a 'nerd' for finding that stuff funny. Worse than that, due to not being particularly internet-savvy they end up misusing every joke and ruining it for everybody else.

people who dont have proper table manners.
if someone holds his fork like a spear, trying to kill the meat again on his plate, talking while chewing or making a mess it really ruines my meal.
its not as bad when its an informal "wasted-on-the-couch-lets-eat-something" snack but i do have a close friend i try avoid having dinner with him because he can not hold his fork the way a fork should be held.

So recently... There's these people complaining about companies in gaming releasing stuff with features they don't like. Which is reasonable but what really grinds my gears is every time this whining is going on there's some smug cunts stating "if you don't like it just don't buy it, LOL what's the problem????" And i get this angry twitch in my eye cause imagine these guys thinking they're so fucking clever for having figured out that complaining is not going to change anything on it's own. It really shouldn't bother me so much but it still does :/

LOL I get the exact same feeling.

What grinds my gears? People who understate mechanics or say they don't matter. They have no idea what the fuck they're talking about.

Also, people who call SCII a strategy game. It's not. It's a game of execution.

When I scroll too far down on a Youtube video and I see the comments

Also when I accidentally click on the 'show comments' button on Facebook. Just clicked on the latest article from Elder Scrolls Online. All the comments are about boycotting ESO because it's coming out on console. Was having such a good day as well...

What grinds my gears every day is navigating through town with a bunch of damn taxis (or minibuses) on the road who all look like they're out to kill you. Sheesh... they drive so recklessly I fear for my life when I see one. And there are thousands in my country.

People who ask you something and then don't even listen to the answer.
People who "occupy" up to 4 seats in a bus for their friends who board later.
People who say something nice to you when they clearly don't really think that.
Overly merry and exuberant people.

I hate those boxes of popsicles that come in assorted flavors, but you can't buy the flavors individually. What the hell am I supposed to do with all the lime flavored ones? Throw them away?

Looking for jobs really grinds my gears...in this day and age in Australia every dog and his fleas has a degree and everyone is overqualified...thus we end up getting whatever work we can in dead-end demeaning jobs supporting companies that we wouldn't ever recommend to anyone!

So I was going to post here and REALLY limit the wording I could go into (which would make it more appropriate for a blog).

I've dealt with 2 absolute fucking nutcase girls over the last ~7 years (not necessarily talking about dating either), and another two or more who seem to have some of the same insecure, egomaniac, mad, hypocrit-to-the-max traits, but only some of those, or all but to a lesser extent in their cases. More possible girls with just 'issues' to a lesser extent, but that's not a concern.
The start of this post really made me think we were on the same wavelength:

probably the thing that grinds my gears the most is when ppl rationalize their own mood by blaming other ppl and making those ppl's attributes out to be bad etc.

like, imagine ur sitting outside reading your hume or whatever, and some sk8r sk8 by saying "lol gay" and whatnot to eachother. what makes them wrong? it seems like a perfectly valid way for them to be handling life. but what u do is ur like fucking fake sk8rz! they think they're cool! or whatever. but really its not their fault, maybe yours, but def not theirs

but yeah, it turned into a skating analogy or example I didn't "get" or relate to. XD

Basically, what really grinds my gears is that where I am, there are a LOT of ruffian nutcases and yet also girls who have the above listed (by me) mad traits and serious mental issues, +ego issues which means they take it out on others when they are either clearly wrong or someone doesn't 100% agree with them.
I don't think I've really come across non-ruffian males like that though, weirdly...
Possibly these both (or at least the latter) stem from
1 - Low iodine amounts in the soil and thus many people possibly being iodine deficient, i.e. limited mental development, increased risk of autism and possibly (can't find the source but I thought I read it somewhere) increased likeliness of psychosis and other mental illnesses relating to impaired judgement/perception of reality/emotions etc.

2 - Maybe at least in part due to bad breeding (except some of the girls have managed to get some good physical genes, especially for the faces, which is fucking horribly deceiving), definitely plays a part in the case of the rough nut occa* bogans.
*+ Show Spoiler +
That is the right spelling, right?


There are all the really plain/really dumb/really tacky girls and then amongst those that seem like they might not be any of those, out of the girls you think you might relate to and consider being friends/more with, plenty actually seem to be batshit insane. I've heard people say plenty of girls are but I feel like the percentage of girls that are MAD here must be higher than the global average %.

And all that stress is in addition to the presence threatening mad-dog bogans that just pop into your life here and there.
Gears be ground.
